16 years after the EDT, the EDP arrives / Is it better or worth the upgrade? / How is it received?
Hello everyone,
I got my hands on the fragrance through a decant, and since my wife and I are big fans of "Chance Eau Fraîche (Eau de Toilette) | Chanel," it was more or less a must to test the scent, and WE deliberately did not look at the notes and reviews beforehand - I find it "BETTER" to test a certain fragrance without any bias!
Both of us were surprised - why?
The EDT offers quite a few notes, and some of you may find it a bit herbaceous/bitter (very zesty citrus). The lemon here is softer and, in my opinion, less bitter than in the EDT. However, the EDP is very linear for about "1 hour," but this doesn't bother me at all! Gradually, the citrus direction shifts towards a jasmine note with a hint of the remaining lemon, and for 3 to 4 hours, the scent is very zesty, fresh, and clean, and less floral than it was in the EDT. After the mentioned 4 hours, a bit more woodiness comes in, becoming increasingly present.
As for the type of wood - whether cedar or teak, I curiously can't pinpoint it, but we really like it, and if I’m HONEST...
I would almost categorize the scent as unisex!
Regarding performance:
Yes, it is better, BUT really only in a subtle range of 1 to 2 hours more; generally, I always recommend using Molecule 01 as a "BOOSTER" for performance!
How is it received:
So far, at work and in private - excellent!
When can I recommend it?
From spring to autumn, it can be worn daily, regardless of age!
Can I recommend you buy it?
More yes than no - why?
Is it better than the EDT - yes!
Is it soooo much better - no!
If you already have the EDT, do you need the EDP - probably not!
And yet we will get it soon - why?
On one hand, my wife's EDT is running low, and on the other hand, I am a fan of quality and noticeable high value + execution, and with an XXL bottle, you have a lot of fun for a long time!
Get a decant like I did and test it.
If I really weren't convinced, I wouldn't recommend it to you!
And now have a nice day/evening or whenever you read this review, best regards, Benny

Da Sirbennyone meinen Pinnwand-Eintrag gelöscht und mich blockiert hat, kann ich nur noch hier diese wertvolle Community informieren.
Ich habe viele teure (Ensar + Areej Le Doré) Proben von Sirbennyone gekauft.
Die Füllmenge war bei allen Proben fast die Hälfte weniger wie vereinbart und für den bezahlten Paketversand kam nur ein Luftpolster-Umschlag.
Somit habe ich einiges an Geld an diesen User verloren.
Auf meine Fragen diesbezüglich kam keine Antwort und ich wurde wie gesagt einfach direkt blockiert.
Wenn man direkt alle Pinnwand-Einträge derer löscht, die nicht zufrieden sind, bleiben am Ende natürlich nur noch die "positiven" auf der Pinnwand sichtbar.
Daher kann ich nur eindringlich Jedem davon abraten von diesem Mitglied Proben zu kaufen.
